Full copies of articles and PDFs are also hosted here due to the DPRK government’s regular deletion and editing of archived materials.

Furthermore, unlike many official DPRK media sites, KCNA Watch allows for articles to be shared in realtime via social media, with permalinks that can be cited in academic journals.
